This webinar is designed for full-time faculty not on the tenure track who will be submitting their portfolios in Fall for a promotion review. While all the rules, schedules, forms and procedures can be found in the Faculty Affairs website, preparing all the relevant documentation is a momentous endeavor that can generate questions and perplexities. Furthermore, the narrative is a genre few faculty are practiced in. We will review requirements and timelines, as well as share common pitfalls and suggestions for crafting an effective portfolio. – May 05, 2020

This webinar is designed for full-time faculty on the tenure track who will be submitting their portfolios in Fall for pre-tenure review or promotion and tenure review. While all the rules, schedules, forms and procedures can be found in the Faculty Affairs website, preparing all the relevant documentation is a momentous endeavor that can generate questions and perplexities. Furthermore, the narrative is a genre few faculty are practiced in. We will review requirements and timelines, as well as share common pitfalls and suggestions for crafting an effective portfolio. Full-time non-tenure track faculty in departments that require a third year review should consult with their chairs to understand the expectations for that review. – May 05, 2020

Your syllabus might be your students’ first impression of you and your course - what does it say about you? Many faculty assume students don’t read the syllabus and that might very well be true, but if you compose your syllabus so that it is something students will want to read - and will need to read - you enhance the likelihood that they will engage and interact with the document throughout the semester. In this webinar, we will discuss the components of a learning-centered syllabus and consider how we can revise our own syllabi to make them more learning-centered. By using the syllabus as a tool to communicate with and engage students we can invite them to share in our passion for learning. – April 27, 2020

Instructors often enjoy working with honors students because they can elevate learning well beyond typical outcomes for a course. This additional development typically goes beyond learning and into development of themselves as vital contributors in their future discipline who can conduct valuable research and contribute solutions to significant problems in contexts for their disciplinary and other relevant communities. How can we create these conditions systematically for all learners? – April 13, 2020
